It is one of the small Hypancistrus species rather than A Peckoltia L134 Leopard Frog.

I can not be more precise than that. Too many black and white Hypancistrus sp. and too lttle experience at identifying them.

It resembles the other odd one I have so I'm interested in learning what the consensus will be.
